In today's episode, our guest is Victoria Wieck, world-renowned jewelry designer and aspiring author. She has been on HSN selling her products and has 20 years in this realm and she brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the jewelry industry. She has done stuff around jewelry and design.  [5:43] Why should I listen to you? I hope to be able to prove that my time was worth our time was worked together.  I have a very interesting story, a different story, and it's my story, so I'm going to own it.  [8:52] Back in 1989 or when I started my company, we were the first generation of females. I'm going to work outside the home in a manager position before mostly secretaries, restaurants, and whatnot. So basically, we were working like crazy, and I left my kids. I was going to leave my kids at home the same way my parents left me. They did it involuntarily, but I had a choice. I pretty much started my company in search of freedom, emotional freedom, more than money.  [10:37] The journey to build a $500 million business.  Two very distinctive parts work together emotionally. When I started my business, I was surrounded by naysayers, including my parents, basically telling me you're going to fail unless you have some loads of money. Today, you have social media; you have the same sort of all the pundits and experts that have never been in business before telling you why you're going to fail.  [12:02] I'm a jewelry designer. There's no business more competitive than jewelry design. Every corner, there was a jeweler. It doesn't take a lot of money to get into the business. It takes money to succeed. I've taken this business, conduct to this very saturated business, and somehow find a niche. Grow it, elevate it, innovated it, and then eventually dominated the industry. [14:44] The emotional part is being disciplined, be consistent, believe in yourself, do something. And remember what I said it, we are also inundated with people who want to motivate you, inspire you, encourage you to do all of this. All those words are words. They don't do anything for you. Actions result in something. [20:25] I created a job in line for women, those women, working women outside the home who needed to look polished, who needed to have some femininity around her who craved it, who was willing to pay for it. She was making money on her own, and she required jewelry to wear every day.   [21:38] And you better love your customer because that's who you're going to hang out with. That is who's going to pay all your bills.  [26:50] Failure I've planned my Failure. When I finally got the first samples, I didn't go to New York or the big markets where my buyers were. I went to the small market in Dallas, where I could afford to make some mistakes. If my vendor screwed up and the hinges don't work, and it was not seven inches, it was four and a half. I was going to find out a smaller market. I kind of cast strove with real customers, smaller-scale customers. [27:51] Failure is not a bad thing. It's not how many times you fail. It's how you get up each time. You better get up differently each time.  [28:21] What promise did God make to the world when he created you? God made the promise that no matter what comes my way, that I was not going to start, I was not going to suffer. And that there was a purpose in my life as long as I'm breathing. No matter what happens, there was a purpose, and I need to find that purpose.  Key Quotes [12:51- 12:55] “Every single thing that you believe in yourself, you'll have to tune out people.” [14:59-15:05] “All those words are words, they don't do anything for you. Actions result in something.” [15:30-15:36] “Things are possible if you allow it to be in your world, if you want it bad enough.” [16:42-16:48] ‘You can't be changing your future self all the time, because then you're just going to be forever in the romance.” [17:24-17:35] “You have to understand when you own a business, it's not about you, it's about your customer and you have to constantly understand the difference between the two.” Learn more about Victoria Wieck.

Episode Twenty Nine Features Victoria Wieck of HSN And SHOPHQ Fame Talking About How She Immigrated To The US And Started A 500 Million Dollar Jewelry Business My Key Takeaways: Victoria was a very interesting lady to interview and it was clear from speaking to her that she prioritized time with her family and yet still managed to build a highly successful company. Victoria's father moved his family to the US so that his daughters would have a much better life than they would in Korea.  Upon arriving they found that their assets had been frozen in both countries and they were effectively penniless. Initially Victoria's English skills were poor so she had to draw out a lot of her questions for her teachers which helped hone her drawing skills. Her parents worked two or more jobs a day to provide for their family.  Victoria being the oldest had to take on an almost parental role with her siblings and help raise them. Victoria began memorizing words in an English language dictionary to teach herself to speak English as there were no English as a second language programs for her school. Her parent's prioritized Education and Victoria went on to get and MBA from the University of Southern California even though she didn't particularly like school.  She admits now that she had to unlearn a lot of what the MBA program taught her as it was not geared towards small business. A one and a half hour commute pushed her to begin her own business so that she would have more time with her family. Victoria leveraged the various international time zones to her advantage so that she could spend more time with her family. She leaned heavily in to Direct Mail initially and had an incredible conversion rate due to her copywriting skills and personalizing each letter with a hand written drawing. Victoria has several books due out in 2022 and hosts the Million Dollar Passion Podcast which will support her upcoming book, Million Dollar Hobbies. To learn more about Victoria, her website is Victoria Wieck | Author, Jewelry Designer & TV Personality - Victoria Wieck and she can be found on LinkedIn and YouTube as well.   Next week we'll have all Sean Moye talking about his invention, the E-Sports Trainer and how it improves muscle memory in sports.   Be sure to hit subscribe in your podcast app so that you don't miss it or any other episodes.

She did go to the corporate world, which is kind of cussing on this show, but she got smart and she got out of it and she started a small company so she can spend more time with her family and not be commuting all the time. But she had no money, no mentors and no inside connections.

Hello, I'm Victoria Wieck, a successful entrepreneur, a TV personality, and the author of the upcoming book, Million Dollar Hobbies, and I am so excited to share with you my journey from a penniless immigrant to building a business that has generated more than $500 million dollars in sales. When I immigrated to America as a teenager from a sleepy little seaside village in South Korea, my life was turned upside down. I didn't speak one word of English and had to adapt to a new culture and learn to make new friends. Things looked pretty bleak for many years, and I didn't have a lot going for me, but I never gave up hope. After working various jobs that I hated in corporate America just to pay my bills, I started my company with no inside connection, expertise, or money by turning my passion for jewelry into profits. I am now living my dream life, doing what I love and spending unlimited time with my family without having to worry about money. I created the Million Dollar Hobbies podcast to share with you how I did it so that you can also turn your passion, hobby, or idea into profits and live your dream life. This is my life's most important work made into a guidebook for any woman who dares to dream. For the past 23 years, I've had the privilege of connecting with so many of you through my TV shows, specifically, 19 years on HSN, and currently on Shop HQ, with the Victoria Wieck Jewelry Collection, and I'm beyond thrilled to be here with you on my podcast. Each week, you will get a dose of inspiration as well as valuable information that you can apply to your life right now to help you achieve the life you are capable of living. You will get tips on how to work less, and get more—more free time, and more money. You will also get expert advice on achieving work / life balance to gain emotional fulfillment and economic freedom, and so much more. I should know, because as I mentioned before, I had nothing, and worked endless hours to climb the corporate ladder, with two young children at home. I truly know what it feels like to keep spinning your wheels faster and faster to get less and less. I was emotionally drained, and physically exhausted, and I knew that I had to step out of my comfort zone and start building a more sustainable future. I will share with you my pearls of wisdom that I've learned through expensive and painful mistakes which will save you time and money, as well as some of the secrets to my greatest successes. It's not going to be easy by any means because the road to success is paved with obstacles, but don't you worry. That's why I'm here. You will get all the tools you'll need to navigate any obstacles you encounter and conquer them like the Boss that you are. From time to time, I will be inviting some fabulous guests with powerful stories of their own journeys to success. So, if you're working in corporate America searching for work / life balance, or are a stay at home mom, full of ideas but don't know where to start, then you are in the right place. I will share everything I've learned, and whatever I don't know, I will get an expert who does know to come on the show. Here is my first tip. Do not believe in myths that get in your way. I've had to bust a lot of myths to succeed. Here is my favorite. “You can't have both money and time, it's one or the other”. WRONG! You can have it all, a successful career, beautiful family life, money, and time. I will show you how. We are going to have a blast together. The Million Dollar Hobbies Show is for you, and all about you! Thank you for listening.
